I've been having this pain on my left waist that comes and goes. It's not exactly constant, but it flares up if I sit or stand for too long. The pain does disappear after about 5 to 10 minutes. I'm just not sure what steps I should take next or who I should see about this. Any advice?

View allI've been having this dragging sensation and pain on the left side of my scrotum which my doctor says is varicocele and recommended surgery but I'm not sure if it's really necessary. Can varicocele heal on its own or are there other treatment options before considering surgery? The discomfort comes and goes but it's really bothering me during physical activity
While it's possible for a varicocele to improve or disappear on its own, particularly in adolescents, it's not a guarantee. In many cases, varicoceles persist and may even worsen over time. Your doctor's recommendation for surgery is likely based on your specific symptoms and how they're impacting your quality of life, especially during physical activity. There are other options to consider before surgery, but it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance.

I've been circumcised for about a month now and I'm wondering if it's okay to use aloe vera gel on the wound. Does it help speed up healing or reduce scarring? Or is there a better gel or cream I should consider for a circumcised wound?

I've been struggling with tight skin under my penis shaft during sex it makes me ejaculate way too fast. I'm considering circumcision or another method to loosen the skin. How much does the procedure usually cost, and how long does recovery take? I'd like to get it done as soon as possible.
If tight skin (phimosis) is causing pain or discomfort, a doctor can suggest treatments like topical steroids or stretching exercises. If those don't work, surgery like circumcision or preputioplasty might be necessary. These procedures can take a few weeks to recover from, and costs can vary widely.
